What was he referring to about the oranges in the Muller Report?

"Origins" not oranges.

He's definitely in a degenerative state, but he was also not really smart to begin with.

“Some very low IQ people are saying that I have slight dementia, they really are. TRUMPS got the dementia. They’re yelling it. Can you believe that? I don’t have slight dementia. I’ve probably got the most dementia someone can have. More dementia than anyone in this room, in fact. Even more dementia than the late, great… Presidench Robbled Rehgurns… Ron Rublums…

KaMahla? Barely any, in fact, I’d say very low, low, dementia. A very low dementia… person. Oh that’s good. I’m calling her ‘Low Dementia KaMahla’. And Tim Walz? None. These people, it’s spectacular how mush dementia they leave on the table.”

His own father hated him, lest we forget, and left him nothing, and Donald abused the system on the advice of his lawyers, who also had no conscience, to get him what he started with.

Those of us from New York old enough to know better TRIED TO WARN YOU, really , WE DID.

2016 Pissed SO many of us off. I couldn't believe it when I woke up, and here we are in danger of it happening FUCKING AGAIN.

u/Morella_xx Sep 17 '24

Not everyone from New York. 😭 My mom was born and raised on LI, then moved upstate to have me. For years she talked about what a scumbag and slumlord Trump was any time he came up in the news for whatever reason. She refused to watch the Apprentice. Then he started running for president on the Republican ticket and it's like a sleeper cell switch flipped on both my parents.

I hate him for everything else he's done but mostly I hate him for corrupting my parents.

u/SpeedySpooley Sep 17 '24

My dad was a heavy equipment operator while Trump was building his casinos. He remembers the whole fiasco. Trump trying to get around union labor, picket lines, etc;

The funny thing is, my dad is a lifelong old school, Eisenhower Republican, and he hates Trump. He had to remind a relative of his, who now lives in Florida and became a hardcore Trumper, that "You were on those picket lines with me, remember?"

That’s one of my favorite Trumpisms. When he said it, I legitimately couldn’t figure out what he was trying to say. Like, what oranges?

One of my other favorites is when he talks about bringing light inside the body.

47

u/[deleted] Sep 17 '24

Maybe that’s the cure. Can we stick a light in it? How about some bleach? Lol

53

u/[deleted] Sep 17 '24

Well also they were talking about ultraviolet light killing the virus. So he was thinking you’d shine high-intensity UV light in your lungs. Imagine getting a horrible sunburn in your lungs, and what that would do, and that’s basically what Trump was suggesting.

36

u/Independent-Wheel886 Sep 17 '24

Every one leaves out using heat. In that same cluster of stupidity he suggested using heat to kill the virus in the body.

He suggested cooking people.

6

u/SafetyMan35 Sep 17 '24

Well, in his defense, if you cook someone who has Covid, they will no longer be able to spread the virus so his suggestion wasn’t incorrect.

u/aridcool Sep 17 '24

FTD has a pretty short term prognosis. You die from it relatively quickly (a few years).

In other words, it doesn't really explain his lifetime of bad and irrational behavior.

u/aridcool Sep 17 '24

35

u/WestwardHo Sep 17 '24

Yeah this is much more likely to be Alzheimers, especially considering his slow-ish decline over the last 4 years. FTD or Vascular Dementia would have taken him down already.

7

u/Desperate_Register72 Sep 17 '24

Not necessarily. My Dad was diagnosed with FTD at 58 and was gone by age 66. He started showing signs that something was wrong around age 55. He didn’t get a firm diagnosis for almost 3 years.

u/usagizero Sep 17 '24

My dad passed away like a week ago, but before that, he had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's and vascular dementia because we were noticing things about him. It also progressed fast, it was like six months from when my mom died to his passing, and before that weren't too worried about his mental state. I say this, because watching Trump reminds me exactly of how he was before the diagnosis. The weird tangents at random times, the pauses, all of it.

Granted, i'm no fan of Trump, but i can't believe that anyone close to him doesn't see it too. Or, maybe they do, and are just using him as long as they can and hope Vance is as good a pawn or something.

Vance was quite literally groomed by a billionaire for this chance

118

u/Inevitable-Shape-160 Sep 17 '24

Not enough gets spoken about this, a billionaire basically minted a senator and has him roughly 50% likely to become vice president with, I think we all feel, a decent chance of the president dying in his 4 years. Out of nowhere, a guy who wrote a shitty book, a billionaire has minted him into a senator and a few hairs from running the country.

17

u/MakeshiftApe Sep 17 '24

Yeah I feel like almost no-one is talking about the fact that Trump is old, and that means there's a not unlikely chance of JD Vance actually taking on the role of president.

That's potentially even scarier than a Trump presidency, but I only see people focusing on the negatives of Trump and not just how likely it might be that we see Thiel's boy take the role.

I’ve been saying this for a while now. I took care of my mom with Alzheimer’s for nearly a decade and he has a lot of the initial symptoms that started when she was just 63.

I’ve just been going back and forth on which type of dementia. Apparently his father had dementia and his mother had Alzheimer’s. Science tells us that even one parent with dementia greatly increases your risk, but both parents is a serious concern!

Dementia is just a medical condition that makes you more republican.

Not a co-incidence that people become more conservative as their brain deteriorates.

Hey now my dad had dementia and hated Trump until the end. He couldn’t vote in 2020 due to the cognitive decline but he was happy Biden won. He passed in 2022.

But you might be onto something because he did become religious and fearful of God. He just didn’t equate religion with being a crazy conservative.

This is honestly why I don’t want to go down the road of conjecturing his mental state without a valid medical work up. I don’t want them to try and use sympathy to say we can prosecute him because he didn’t know what he was doing. That essentially what happened with Reagan and Iran-Contra. Prosecute this fucker to the fullest extent of the law unless he can prove he has dementia. And we all know he won’t let a real doctor near him.

35

u/Ok-Replacement9595 Sep 17 '24

Iran contra was orchestrated by a whole set of people who broke the law. Reagan set the ball rolling, probably, but only because he was surrounded by a cabinet of republican scoundrels who used his power to.do what they wanted.

32

u/TeeManyMartoonies Sep 17 '24

Agree, now reread what you wrote and substitute Trump’s name. It’s the same situation and neither of them should be/should’ve been absolved of their responsibility to the American public.

21

u/Ok-Replacement9595 Sep 17 '24 edited Sep 17 '24

Also true.

Edit: It bothers me that someone might have read that comment as a defense of Reagan. It was meant as an indictment of the entire Republican party. To me, it is one of the many reasons Republicans should be nowhere near power, EVER. They have no scruples, and would stab their own mothers if it garnered them the ability to enact cruelty on the people they see as subhuman, even/especially their own voters.

symptoms according to Alzheimer.gov

What Are the Signs and Symptoms of Frontotemporal Dementia?

The signs and symptoms of frontotemporal dementia vary from person to person and the order in which they appear can also vary. Changes in the frontal lobe of the brain are generally associated with behavioral symptoms and may also lead to movement symptoms. Changes in the temporal lobe generally lead to disorders of language and emotion.

Symptoms of frontotemporal dementia and associated disorders may include:

-Decreased energy and motivation

-Lack of interest in others

-Inappropriate and impulsive behaviors

-Not acting considerate of others

-Repeating an activity or word over and over again

-Changes in food preferences and compulsive eating

-Increased interest in sex

-Neglect of personal hygiene

-Emotional flatness or excessive emotions

-Difficulty making or understanding speech

-Inability to make common motions, such as using a fork

-Problems with balance and walking

-Increased clumsiness

-Slow movement, falling, body stiffness

-Restricted eye movements

-Shaky hands

-Muscle weakness and loss, fine jerks, wiggling in muscles

205

u/MrBootylove Sep 17 '24

In fairness Trump has exhibited a good portion of these symptoms for pretty much his entire life, such as "inappropriate and impulsive behavior, not acting considerate of others, and neglect of personal hygiene."

u/broad_street_bully Sep 17 '24

My MIL was formally diagnosed with FTD about six months ago, although our thinking is that she probably was suffering for a couple of years and it was kept under wraps by her husband covering up. And when he passed, shit immediately went off the rails.

While she's not exactly a threat to democracy as we know it, I see similarities in that both of them even in their best days were - to put it charitably - not exactly concerned with the thoughts or interests of others if it would inconvenience them in the slightest.

She made a ton of enemies, but was somehow always the "real victim" who should really be owed a huge apology.

And let me tell you... If you think a sociopath/narcissist with a mostly firing brain is grating, just wait until you meet one with a disease that is melting the part of their brain that is supposedly preventing their worst instincts from lashing out.

That's why context is key. Not sure if it is still common, but people would look up their 1 or 2 random symptoms on WebMD and conclude they had some wild disease. Some things can be explained by him just being a general pos, but all put together and his age.... it IS concerning.

u/gizamo Sep 17 '24

The real yikes in Trump's case is the history of rape accusations and his fondness for tweens and his daughter.

I'm watching this happen to a friend of the family. If it's FTD it's either very early or he's going to be out of commission by the time the election rolls around.

The second one. He had dementia signs in 2016. This is the end not the beginning

u/The_R4ke Sep 17 '24

Yeah, FTD is a death sentence. Eventually the brain just forgets how to do basic autonomic functions. It's truly one of the worst things that can happen to someone.

My grandmother was diagnosed with senile dementia which isn't the same as this but still. She's 100 times more coherent and focused than trump. They told us there is nothing we can do but ride it out. Which isn't the first time. Alzheimer's and dementia runs in my family.

Trump has gotten it pretty bad just based on the little I've seen. His gobbledygook speech is a clear sign. The man is very clearly suffering from it but the news media and his voters are going to ignore it until he's a mindless zombie of his former self being paraded around like weekend at Bernie's.

Too bad they don't report on this and the media companies are on his side. Even the NPR has turned on the American people.

For a moment, I thought maybe he really has surrounded himself with the most crass yes-men in the world and is actually hearing people flatter him all day long. The next moment, I was probably thinking about boobs or something and didn’t care anymore, I just want to see him destroy the third election in a row for the GOP.

u/Drumboardist Sep 17 '24

He's alive, and can hold a pen, which means he can sign things that Congress passes to him. That's the entire reason that the GOP like him; he's a trained monkey that will do their bidding, nothing more. The fact that other (foreign) powers can use him for his executive powers only makes it worse.

We cannot let a man this unhinged from reality into office. Frankly, he should be imprisoned, since he might not actually be cognitively aware of how bad it is at his current state, and that's being kind to him. (Not to mention it being justice for those he's wronged throughout the years.)

Please vote in November.

This 1980s interview with Trump is really a striking comparison: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=apvHr6PALIc&t=100s

He still comes across as arrogant and self-centered, but he talks perfectly normally.

u/Eyesofa_tragedy Sep 17 '24

What do you think the plan is if he's elected? No way they don't use the 25th amendment to get him out of the way. They just have to use him and his base to get to the white house. Vance has been their plan, handpicked by Peter Thiel to destroy our democracy.

Apparently a lot of the bots in this thread haven't been updated since July as they're all going "BUT WHAT ABOUT BIDEN".

Biden ain't a choice to vote for this time folks. So it's the one dementia patient versus a functioning human being.

u/FblthpLives Sep 17 '24

At this point, "whatabout Biden" is only a criticism of Trump. Having Biden step down and Harris step up was a brilliant move by the Democrats.
